Thanks for asking. I found the idea to be an unethical dark pattern, so I made my point, but in companies like these, it’s not enough. So I implemented a light experiment of what was asked, and it validated my hypothesis: it was not solving a real need and was actually not even improving revenue, and that it was indeed leading to a poorer user experience. Since the request was really pushed top down, I still had to move on with so I limited it to the specific population where it would make more money. Who has the most money to spend in cheaper countries? US tourists going to Latin America. Let’s make it more expensive for Americans to stay in a Colombian hotel than for a local. It pleased the small hotel owners, had a positive impact on local tourism… good enough.
Then I moved to a different team and they threw away my work went full on and delivered the whole shit.

Hey fellow Americans, you know what you can do with all this new raw milk on your shelves? Better cheese.

I’d like to see all the data about Airbnb. My knowledge of Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona and Rome tells a different story.

years ago, a big boss of an evil hotel company I worked was doing a AMA and got asked “where do we draw the line on ethics?”. His answer was “at the end of the day, if you don’t feel comfortable telling your mother what you did today, then don’t do it” I loved this answer and used this very often.
Then a few months later, he directly made us work on the dirtiest geopricing / yelding features I ever saw. I guess the real question to ask during that day was “where do your mother draw the line on ethics?”

I like the idea of watching Robert de Niro and Al Pacino in this absolute classic while enjoying a stream of fresh air, and 171 minutes of autonomy is pretty nice. But I don’t see where the DVD should be inserted.

as a radical colourblind: colour is a construction of the mind. Colour names make no sense. The only thing that matters is contrast.

I frown at people eating kale mixed in mashed potatoes or calling white bread with peanut butter a lunch.
Joke aside, the Dutch like good food and are way more open to other cuisines than most European countries.

- Comment on gabe³ half-life 3 confirmed 3 months ago:
I’m not an expert but I wanted to build my own gaming mini-PC. I followed this guide step by step, which was super useful because they were giving useful tips to make sure everything fits and works correctly: techbuyersguru.com/…/building-a-small-form-factor… (they update the config each month so the current guide is very different from 5 years ago) But, in retrospective, I think I should have gone for a bigger case because there is basically no other GPU that can fit this case anymore.

- Comment on What's your answer? And in the picture which news story is being reported? 3 months ago:
Berlin wall for sure. Earlier major events like Tchernobyl, famine in Ethiopia or the death of Coluche (iconic French comedian, pretty big thing in France), I mostly remember my parents reaction and discussions at home.

- Comment on Ok, boomer 3 months ago:
I’m 45, so not a boomer but already too old to get any respect from people in their 30’s (90% of my colleagues for example). Simply speaking about something they didn’t experience (reading a map, installing an OS, meeting the love of your life without a dating app…) gets me a “Ok Boomer” each time so what do I do? I just shut the fuck up. I’m not worried, they’ll be in my position very quickly.

Is there a reader viewer button on Chrome? I don’t remember. This feature is vastly ignored, but it’s simply the perfect way to read content. No consent pop-up, no design, no ad, just a beautiful simple page with text and images.
- Comment on life purpose 3 months ago:
I worked in open spaces with more than 300 desks per floor aligned next to each other and no walls. You can’t talk, you are always making eye contact with people you don’t even know, your screen is constantly visible to the others and you can’t keep anything personal next to you. A cubicle would have been a dream in comparison.

Judging my life based on my shitpost-answering habits is outrageous. Nothing to laugh about here.
